5 Signs To Replace Your Air Conditioning
In the life of every appliance, there comes a time to replace. But when is the right time? A few things to look out for include:
- Age: If your AC unit is between 10-12 years, it may be time to start planning for a new one. AC units tend to break down when the weather is the most extreme, which can lead to longer lead times for install. Preventatively replacing an older unit will alleviate headaches during summer months.
- Frequent repairs: If you find yourself calling the repair technician more often, this is only going to get worse as the unit continues to age.
- Increased energy bills: A spike in your energy bill may mean your AC is working harder than it should. If your unit is maintained regularly, it may point to a bigger issue.
- Inconsistent temperatures: If some rooms are suddenly too hot while others are too cold, it could mean your AC isn’t distributing air correctly.
- New noises or smells: Odd sounds, such as banging, grinding, or unusual odors, can be signs of serious problems.
We’re proud to offer free quotes and financing options to make the air conditioning replacement as easy as possible for you.
Ductless Mini-Split Installation & Replacement
A ductless mini-split system is a wonderful air conditioning option for homes lacking the ductwork central AC units require. Consisting of individual units mounted in one or several rooms, they can be controlled individually. Because they heat and cool each room individually, they can function without the ductwork of other units, making them ideal for older or smaller homes.

FAQs
How long does it take to replace your air conditioning?
Typically, AC replacement takes four to eight hours. The exact time depends on factors like the setup of the old system and any major updates to unit placement or wiring.
Can I replace my own AC?
DIY AC installations are not recommended as these systems are delicate with multiple sensitive components. It’s also possible to void warranties.
